I found this Enfield in a shop. The guy said it came from Ellot Brothers. He said it was found in a warehouse, in unfired condition... (ahem... uh, yeah...). Anyway, it's stamped "CAI" on the barrel, so I guess it was imported by Century Arms at one time. It appears to be in really good condition and actually does look unfired. The muzzle is also filled with cosmoline, but it has been cleaned off of most of the rest of the gun. It came with a bayonet, but the guy said someone stole the magazine from the rifle while it was in the shop. (So, now I have to find a magazine somewhere.)
I know very little about Enfields. I would very much appreciate any info about this gun or comments. The side of the gun is etched "No. 4 MK2" and then what appears to be a serial number.
Is this a British gun? Pakastani? Australian? I don't see any kind of country or factory or company marking on it. (The importer markings say UK, but I don't know.)
What kind of wood is this? Beech? Birch?
Anyway, attached are some pictures. Sorry for posting so many...
Thanks,
Steve
